Mitzvah Tanks Ride into NYC

Hundreds lined the streets of Crown Heights today to cheer on the famed "Mitzvah Tank Parade." Fifty-nine Mitzvah 'Tanks', corresponding to the years of the Rebbe’s leadership since 5710/1950, rode from 770 Eastern Parkway into Manhattan. Gallery

shut up evrybody

I watched the parade...

the tanks did NOT have ANY flags whatsoever when they left 770… It was VERY neutral and inspiring with niggunim playing from every tank and excited bochrim waving from their windows. If 1 tank had one, they must have put it on after the parade, while doing individual mivtzoyim (without permission probably.)

GOOOO RAKSIN

As someone who took time off work in the city to watch the tanks go by i can report that There was one tank with a yechi flag.
mordy hirsh does a great job however he cannot control every meshugana. FYI on sunday the crazys will be having their own tank parade. with many flags and signs no doubt.

Yemosh hamoshiach does not mean making a chillul hashem!! we were in yemos hamoshiach for the last 59 years, yet the rebbe did everything according to halacho

IT IS TIME THAT YOU REALIZE THAT THE “GOOD OLD DAYS”
ARE OVER & AS THE REBBE SAYS WE ARE NOW IN “YEMOIS H’AMOSHIACH”

TTO Revach--Chorus:

Nebach, Nebach, Nebach!
Yechiniks are Nebach!
Nebach, Nebach, Nebach!
Get a life!

C’mon,
Isn’t there more to this Mitzvah tank parade rather then showing the world we have lunatics in our midsts???
I mean, who in the world would want to join a group of people who think s/o is alive and hiding??!!

Just get a life!

Moshiach Now!

May we have the Seder in Yerushalaim with normal people!

Yechi?

Why are there Yechi signs on the mitzvah tanks? Wasnt the mitzvah tanks to encourage or bring awareness for Jewish people to do a mitzvah?????????? The tanks should have only had pictures with different mitzvahs like in the good old days!

thanks

Boruch Hashem there were yechi signs all over, what would the parade be without any yechi signs? thansk mordy hirsch for always making sure the world knows we are crazy and think the rebbe is alive and well hiding in his room!
